Kate Chopin Ironies of an Hour
An equally appropriate title to Kate Chopin’s ‘The Story of an Hour’ would have been ‘Ironies of an Hour’. The story of a woman who goes through a range of emotions in the space of an hour was hilarious in its irony. ... Divorce was a question of great controversy during Kate Chopin’s era, a fantastic notion quite impossible to digest. ... However Chopin was a realist and portrayed her characters as she thought depicted the true way of life.
